Last 20 Days of Math keeping us energized in June. Wow. Amazing strategies. #tvdsbmath @cedarhollowps

Geometric properties& measurement combo: Est. perimeter of composite polygons using #line to share. Given some dimensions, do you want to change your est? How do we find other dimensions knowing properties of rectangles? Conversions to finish off. #tvdsbmath

@trutland45 @cedarhollowps It’s also a parallelogram. 🤯 unlearning is hard. You do such great stuff.

@DennenyJ @cedarhollowps SPLAT!! What a creative way to present this math routine! #tvdsbmath

[Trish Adams @MrsAdamsPJ]

Finding mistakes is so useful when reviewing conventions in math. This block we did that then moved onto concrete materials before navigating a 4-quad grid on paper. #tvdsbmath @cedarhollowps

The brain organizes information by context and relationships to other information. Asking students to memorize rules with no understanding of how they work goes against every advantage we have in education.

BREAKING: The Ford government has lost another major court case. Ontario Court of Appeal has ruled that campaign spending restrictions targeting unions & other non-party groups infringe voters' Charter right to meaningful participation in the electoral process. #onpoli

Static electricity investigations. Recording observations in L1, dual language dictionary to come as we begin this science unit. @cedarhollowps

Visual representations before abstract algorithms have a significant impact on conceptual understanding. A number line model for equations resulted in 100% accuracy. Next week we’ll connect these models to the balance method. @cedarhollowps #tvdsbmath

Math block felt great today. So fun to start w/ Quiz, Quiz, Trade (DJ EZ Rock as we moved around), independent practice, KH Gameshow to finish. Great start to algebra unit. @cedarhollowps @knowledgehook #tvdsbmath

Amazing Math Race — complete with Road Blocks & Detours. Great way to review concepts from Term 1. #tvdsbmath @cedarhollowps

The Ontario Teachers’ Federation and its Affiliates strongly oppose this outrageous and indefensible 17.64% membership fee increase. This stark fee increase comes as our members, like many Canadians, are facing the challenges of inflation and a higher cost of living.

@trutland45 @tvdsbmathk8 @cedarhollowps These would be great for rotational symmetry in grade 6!

[Trish Adams @MrsAdamsPJ]

I’ve always loved this activity. It’s like opening a gift at the end. MART. Geometric properties: construct triangles/quads given measurements, tape off design& paint. #TVDSBMATH @cedarhollowps
